Motorcyclists won't be able to cross the Lake Ponchartrain Causeway this morning because of this morning's rainy conditions. They should take an alternate route across the lake this morning and allow themselves more time.

Firefighters, meanwhile, doused a car fire on Interstate 10's eastbound span near the Louisa Street exit, according to authorities. It created some delays for motorists trying to drive past the area. There was no word of injuries.
